Arguments

:: [(Size, Alignment)]	List of sizes and aligments of the type's/struct's fields. [(Int,Int)]
-> [Offset]	List representing the offests of the type's/struct's fields. [Int]

Calculates the memory offset of type's/struct's fields.

Arguments

:: [(Size, Alignment)]	List of sizes and aligments of the type's/struct's fields. [(Int,Int)].
-> Size	The returned size. Int

Calculates the size of the type/struct.

Arguments

:: [Alignment]	List of struct's fields' alignments.
-> Alignment	The resulting alignment.

Calculate the alignment of a struct.

Arguments

:: [(Size, Alignment)]	List of sizes and aligments of the type's/struct's fields. [(Int,Int)]
-> [Filling]	List representing the memory layout. [Filling]

Get the memory layout of a given type/struct. Used mostly as debug information.
